EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the village of Halicz, nestled in the picturesque region of Galicia. The focal point of this image is an elderly man, dressed in traditional clothes that reflect his rich cultural heritage. It is circa September 1914, a period marked by conflict and turmoil as World War One raged on. The old man's weathered face tells a story of resilience and survival amidst poverty and hardship. His coat hangs loosely around him, symbolizing the struggles faced by those living through war-torn times. A walking stick provides support as he navigates the cobbled road, each step a testament to his strength. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported to an era when Galicia was part of the former Soviet Union or USSR. This snapshot offers a glimpse into everyday life during that time - a moment frozen in history forever. Photographer George Mewes has skillfully captured not only an individual but also an entire generation affected by war. Through this image, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by countless individuals who lived through these challenging times. Let us cherish this poignant reminder from Memory Lane Prints – a tribute to ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances during one of humanity's darkest chapters: World War One on the Eastern Front.
